You'll need to use proper spelling and don't even THINK about using profanity. Last (And probably least...),you'll need to learn that you are only allowed ONE account. No sockpuppets what-so-ever. Note: Pokémon. Not Pokemon. We're trying to look professional here! Must be Capitalised. Not pokemon. Not Pokemon. Not pokémon. It's Pokémon!

Please have a good time here. Thank you for going this far in the message. This is an automatic message generated by Agent 025 created on 07:35, 22 November 2007 (UTC). Good luck. This idea IS copyright of Optimus35. Could it kill you to ask???

The word Pokémon is spelled with a capital P and an accented é. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either 130 or 0233 on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.

The word Poké Ball is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital B. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.

The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.

If you happen to spot a vandal in the recent changes that has not been dealt with, please see this page for how to deal with it.

A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at this page. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found here, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found here.

For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the anime, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as Brock's Happiny being held in his arms).

Image uploading is done on Bulbagarden Archives, a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and Bulbanews have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.

If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:Zapdos/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.

Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.

A list of the admins that you can contact in case of a problem can be found here.

Also, please don't remove content from your talk page. It looks like you were unfortunate enough to recieve an Optimatum welcome, so here's a real one. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 02:39, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Well, I deleted my talk page because I'm leaving the site and never going on this site again. Even if I'm not logged in. The reason is because there's smiley popups and ads. Can someone tell me, WHY THE F***in' HELL THERE'S POPUPS AND SCAMS ON HERE?!?!?! Zapdos 20:07, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
